This Wednesday Judge Miller came to speak at the Rose Café. I had attended Judge Millers Café last semester and found it extremely interesting. Last semester, Judge Miller told of a recent landmark ruling of his regarding unreasonable search and seizure as well as many anecdotal accounts of the court room.
This Wednesday night we spoke again about Judge Millers rulings that have now been upheld not only in New York but it was even referenced in the Virgin Islands! The most interesting part of our conversation lied in Judge Millers theories on the ills of the nation.
Judge Miller theorized that if two major problems were to be amended in American society, virtually all other national struggles and concerns would dissipate. The first problem is our lack of access to health care. the second problem is the differing quality of and access to education in the U.S. Judge Miller believes if the country can accomplish universal access to healthcare and standardized, universal access to education then this will provide the catalyst to remedy drug and conduct issues, routine incarceration, aids, racism, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc…..
I am not positive how I feel about Judge Millers theory involving the magic remedy to humankinds struggles. Even so I accept the blaringly obvious importance of these two major national shortcomings and need to address them.
I couldn’t agree more with your view on Judge Miller’s “magic two”. Concurrently to Miller having no idea on how to implement these two “solutions”, we have absolutely no idea as to how or even if they will solve other issues pressing our society.
